Medicaid, School Programs, and a Dental Home
The Georgia Department of Public Health runs an oral health program that sends dental hygienists into schools to teach brushing, flossing, and healthy eating. School programs are a great start, but children still benefit from a regular dentist who knows their history.
A dental home means one office tracks your child’s growth, catches problems early, and is there when something hurts. For Jonesboro families on Medicaid, Brown Dental can be that office from the first tooth through high school.
Straighter Smiles for Jonesboro Teens
Some bite problems are easier to correct while a child is still growing. Dr. Brown checks how teeth and jaws are developing at each visit and may recommend phase one treatment for younger kids when early care could help.
For teens, our pediatric orthodontics include Invisalign clear aligners. Aligners are removable for meals and brushing, which many teens find easier to live with.
